### 第1段

We have just moved into a new house and I have been working hard all morning. I have been trying to get my new room in order. This has not been easy because I own over a thousand books. To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily put my books on the floor. At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space and I actually have to walk on them to get in or out of the room. A short while ago, my sister helped me to carry one of my old bookcases up the stairs. She went into my room and got a big surprise when she saw all those books on the floor. 'This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen,' she said. She gazed at it for some time, then added, 'You don't need bookcases at all. You can sit here in your spare time and read the carpet!'

中文理解：我们刚刚搬进一所新房子，我辛辛苦苦地干了整整一个上午。 我试图把我的新房间收拾整齐，但这并不容易，因为我有1,000多本书。更糟糕的是房间还非常小，所以我暂时把书放在了地板上。这会儿，书把地板的每一点空隙都占据了，我实际上是踩着这些书进出房间的。 几分钟前，我妹妹帮我把一个旧书柜搬上了楼。她走进我的房间，当她看到地板上的那些书时，大吃一惊。 “这是我见过的最漂亮的地毯，”她说。她盯着“地毯”看了一会儿，又补充道：“你根本用不着书柜，空闲时你可以坐在这儿读地毯！”

* **To make matters worse**：更糟的是 / 在空闲时；前者补充新的困难，后者说明事情发生的时间。

* **At the moment**：目前 / 像往常一样 / 此刻；时间范围不同；这些词帮助交代背景，不单独决定时态。

* **a big surprise**：意外 / 在某岁时 / 贫困中；结合原句看 surprise 是感受还是意外的事，年龄用 at。

#### 1. We have moved and I have been working…

并列句，and 连接前后两句，均为主谓结构.

\[关键句型] 本句便是本课所需要复习的语法点，前句为现在完成时，已经完成了搬家的工作；后句为现在完成进行时，表示收拾家的工作在这一早上一直在忙着呢，对现在来说也有了些结果，收拾了一部分了，还需要继续收拾.

#### 2. I have been trying to get…

简单句，主谓宾结构，不定式短语整体作宾语可以这样理解to get my new room .

#### 3. This has not been easy because I own over a thousand books.

复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是because 引导的原因状语从句，主谓宾结构.

#### 4. the room is small, so I have put my books…

并列句，so 是连词，前句为主系表结构；后句为主谓宾结构.

#### 5. they cover every inch and I have to walk.

并列句，and 连接前后两句，前句为主谓宾结构；后句为主谓结构. they 指书籍.

#### 6. my sister helped me to carry…

简单句，按传统分析是主谓宾 + 宾语补足语结构：me 是 helped 的宾语，to carry… 说明 me 所做的动作，因此是宾补，不是主语补语。help 后的不定式也可以省略 to。

#### 7. She went and got a surprise when she saw books.

复合句，主句是并列句，and 连接前后两句，前句主谓结构；后句为省略了主语的主谓宾结构，最后是跟了一个when 引导的时间状语从句，主谓宾结构.

#### 8. This is the prettiest carpet I have seen.

复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是省略了that 的定语从句，内部应按主谓宾理解，关系代词 that 作 seen 的宾语，因可省略而未出现。

#### 9. She gazed at it, then added…, You don't need bookcases.

并列句，引号里面的内容是简单句，主谓宾结构，此处不额外分析了.

gazed 与 added 是共用主语 she 的两个相继动作，then 表示“随后”。一个主语可以带并列谓语，不能仅因出现两个动词就判定句子有误；也不能认为加一个逗号便自动变成两个完整句子。学习时可用 and then 明确动作衔接。

#### 10. You can sit and read the carpet!

并列句，and 连接前后两句，前句为主谓结构；后句为省略了主语you 的主谓宾结构.
